Prentice Goes Distance in 4-1 Win
The Houston Drillers downed the Dallas Wranglers, 4-1, at Bluff Park. Stellar pitching by Danny Prentice had a lot to do with it. The right-hander, who finished 2nd in the ABL in innings pitched with 252.0 in 1964, handcuffed his opponent all game. With their winning streak at 4, the Drillers have raced to a strong start this season.

Prentice scattered 5 hits over 9 innings for the Drillers. With the win, Prentice goes to 1-0 on the year with 5 strikeouts.

"I felt good even in the late innings," said Prentice after the game.
